the answer would be m1:m2 as velocities are also equal because kinetic energies are equal

Hey there!
Given,
Two bodies m1 and m2
Let the velocity of 1st body be = v1
Then its Kinetic energy = p²/2m1=(m1v1)²/2m2
Let the velocity of 2nd body be = v2
Then its Kinetic energy = p²/2m2 = (m2v2)²/2m2
Now, (m1v1)²/2m1 = (m2v2)²/2m2
∴(m1v1)/(m2v2) =
Then Ratio = √(2m2) : √(2m1)
Hope It Helps You!
